โœฆ Synopsis

To determine how the surface modification of mica influences flexural strength and fracture toughness of mica-relnforced cement composites, mica was treated with HF acid and three coupling agents: two silanes (CVBS, yMPS) and a titanate (IDT). Significant increases in mechanical properties resulted, depending on type of treatment, concentration of treating solution, reaction time, and w/c ratio.

Results of an investigation of the use of high-aspect-ratlo mica flakes in hardened portland cement matrices are reported. Increases in flexural strength by a factor of 2 and in fracture toughness by a factor of 4, depending on matrix porosity, are obtained by the addition of small amounts of mica.
